A Philadelphia narcotics officer had to give up his police weapon and is on desk duty for being involved in obtaining false warrants. Thomas Tolstoy has been a drug officer for 10 years and is the latest officer to be implicated in bad warrants. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has been investigating Philadelphia narcotics officers who have been accused of lying on search warrants in order to get into alleged drug houses.

The District Attorney’s Office in Philadelphia has opened over 50 drug convictions due to possible problems with the search warrants.
